How to Destroy Angels- The Space in Between
So for the past week I’ve had Pitchfork open in a tab for the sole purpose of watching Trent Reznor’s new video with his new band How to Destroy Angels (over and over again). As sad as I am about the end of Nine Inch Nails, at least I can listen to this. However, instead of getting to hear Trent’s beautiful voice, the singing is done by the girl formerly of West Indian Girl… aka his wife.
I’m coming to terms with the whole “Trent Reznor is married” thing. There’s still that industrial sound, and you can even imagine how the song would sound were it Trent singing. But it works with Mariqueen doing the vocals, and for the most part… I think I’ll like it. Plus I can’t hate on the fact that he married a hot azn (specifically Filipino, oh hey look at that).
They’re releasing a FREE digital EP tomorrow (by tomorrow I meant June 1st, the calendar confuses me)… which you can pre-order today and get an instant download of “The Believers”. As for how well the rest of the project will fare (apart from these two songs), I’ll see if I fully believe in it when I hear it tomorrow.
